Big Change To The Main Street Market: Now Every Week On Saturday, Still Awesome Pizza

Big changes -- all for the best -- are coming to the farmers market run off Main Street in Ellicott City.

For several years, the folks behind Tersiguel's and the Little French Market ran a monthly market on the second Sunday of the month. This weekend they announced that they'll run weekly markets in 2014 -- every Saturday morning in the courtyards off the parking lot behind Tersiguel's. They'll use the name Old Town Market now that they're weekly.

I'll write more when the May 10 starting date gets closer, but this is a really fun event. Last year, they had vendors selling produce and some products, including honey, jam, olives and pickles. They also had barbecue, crepes and other food. One of the real draws -- which will help headline the market in 2014 -- was River House Pizza, which makes wood-fired pizzas from a portable oven set up on site.

The plan for the markets is to run 9 am to 1 pm on Saturdays from May 10 to November 8, 2014.

I visited the Ellicott City Old Town Market this weekend and my husband talked to the owner of River House Pizza Co- he acquired ScoopAHHdeedoo and plans to open a kitchen in an empty space he just bought right there in Tonge Row.Link to my blog post:Ellicott City Old Town Market
